I've been modelling, painting miniatures and wargaming since I was a wee lad in Swansea, this blog details some of my interests - I hope that you like it.
In 2010 I started a new modelling venture - building 40mm AWI/ACW terrain pieces and designing 28mm masters, which are then cast and available for sale from Grand Manner. - All original images and text are copyright of A. S. Harwood (Dampfpanzerwagon)

Orc Officer

I am regularly impressed by the cartoon artwork of Iron Mitten and have with many false starts, tried to produce similar illustrations, most being consigned to the bin!

I know that if I am to improve I first have to practice and secondly have some impetus to continue. Therefore here is my first published cartoon illustration - a Flintloque Orc Officer. I have used an artist black drawing pen and coloured the illustration with watercolour paint.

Comments and critique are welcome in fact needed - as without them I might allow this part of my hobby to dwindle.

About Me

Born and brought up in Swansea, South Wales, I now live in Droitwich with my wife Sue. My daughter Holly is now working as a teacher in Stourport. My son, Gary lives in Leamington Spa with his Wife Beckie and our two Grandsons Finley and Charlie, but I still think of myself as a 'Jack' (an in-joke known to those of a certain age who count Swansea as their home town). Like my Grandfather, my Father and Uncle, I have made models, painted toy soldiers and wargamed since I was a very young boy and now feel privileged that I have the time to dedicate to my hobby. This Blog is a great way recording how I have developed as a modeller, but it's not ALL about model making. I hope you enjoy it. Tony
